You Need To Know

If he makes you wonder just how much you're loved Then baby he's doin' it wrong If his heart doesn't melt at the thought of your touch Then you're somewhere where you don't belong If he's not seein' stars every time you make love Then I know a place you can run You need to know that I'd love you better In my eyes you'd see nothin' short of forever My heart would follow wherever you go I'd be all in baby body and soul You need to know If when you're apart he don't go insane Then I'm tellin' you somethin' ain't right If the smell of your skin the taste of your lips Doesn't light up his fire Then I know somebody who'd trade everything To be what he never could be You need to know that I'd love you better In my eyes you'd see nothin' short of forever My heart would follow wherever you go I'd be all in baby body and soul You need to know You'd never feel second best Or have to ask me where you stand You need to know that I'd love you better In my eyes you'd see nothin' short of forever My heart would follow wherever you go I'd be all in baby body and soul You need to know

This is a fine lyric, Shawn. As I was reading it a melody was running through my head, which tells me it is singable. As a pianist, I will enjoy tinkering with this one.
